Help needed in Apex Integration with EBS

Hi All,
Currently, when trying to integrate with EBS these are the steps I followed.
1) Created apex generate hash and apex launch procedure in APPS DB.
2) Created Profile in Application Developer Responsibility.
3) Saved above profile in system administrator -->Profile -> System and set the site level as http://<hostname>:<Apex port>/pls/apex
4) Created a function in system administrator , type as SSWA plsql function and called the launch procedure and passed parameters as my apex application and page id.
5) Created a Web PL/SQL entry under System Administrator Responsibility -> Security -> Web PL/SQL for the launch procedure.
6) Created menu, responsibility and assigned to the user.
For the APEX application , currently I have not given any login page. The login is through EBS only. I have given logout URL in apex application to EBS Login page. Now my problem is , when I click Logout the session of EBS does not get invalidated. How can I achieve this ?
Secondly, When I give the APEX application URL directly in the browser it will open without asking for the EBS login credential. But I do not want this to happen. I need it to be authenticated through EBS login credential.
Any suggestions would be welcome.
Thanks
Alaka

Hi Scott,
I tried the solution given in this URL.
http://oracledbas.blogspot.com/2008/11/oracle-application-express.html
It is not working for me.. I tried in the forum also.
While creating authentication scheme I gave Oracle EBS Login Page as Session Not Valid URL. But every time I login to EBS and click responsibility then menu which has APEX screen, it is not validating username and password and it redirects to EBS login page which i gave in "session not valid URL" (it is going to a loop.)
Now my problem is when I login to EBS and click responsibility then my APEX screen should validate the EBS login and directly it should open. It should not ask for any other (APEX login)login page. If I paste the APEX application URL in any browser it should ask for EBS login page.
When I logout it should invalidate the session of EBS.
Thanks
Alaka

APEX integration with EBS R12.1.1 - no SSO

I am trying to complete APEX integration with EBS R12.1.1 in simplest way. I have a non authenticated report page that I need to link to through a menu and function on one of the existing forms.
Rod West document
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/apex-ebs-wp-cabot-consulting-169064.pdf
offers the jsp approach which I like to implement however the jsp will not compile correctly and I am not sure why - I have already fond one error with the code as listed in the document:
ojspCompile.pl compile -s 'LaunchApex.jsp ' retry ---> will not work
ojspCompile.pl compile -s 'LaunchApex.jsp' retry --> will work
compile will fail starting at this point of the code:
PARALLEL COMPILATION: 1
[10389] !!COMPILATION ERROR(0) LaunchApex.jsp:
_LaunchApex.java:70: illegal start of type
if (ctx==null) {

has anyone tried this approach and got the jsp to compile with no errors or can you see what is it?
thanks in advance.

Hello Mini:
thanks for the info and I have followed the steps as listed. I am not sure what line is the bad code you listed is on - here is the copy of the jsp I am working with and maybe you can point to a specfic line(s) that need to be changed from what to what.

Apex Integration with EBS R12 - javax.servlet.ServletException

Morning,
We are in the process of upgrading from 11i to R12 and we have found that our method of launching Apex in 11i no longer works in R12. We are trying to follow the following instructions: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/apex-ebs-wp-cabot-consulting-169064.pdf and have created a .jsp file and compiled as per the document. When we try to launch the function from apps though we get:
An exception occured.

Hi,
If the jsp compiled successfully then you may need to bounce your web server before the jsp can be used. See MOS Note 458338.1 for more details.
Actually, now that Oracle have updated their FND Gateway for Apex integration there are only a few situations (such as if you want to pass parameters from the form function to Apex) where you need to use a custom jsp to launch Apex. In most cases you can use the Oracle supplied GWY.jsp to launch your Apex Page. To use this jsp you must apply the EBS R12 patch 12316083 (and patch 12726556 if you are launching from the forms navigator). How to use the GWY.jsp is described in "Extending Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 using Oracle Application Express" white paper.

APEX integration with EBS 11i10: view concurrent request output

Hi All:
ENV: APEX 4.0
EBS: 11i10
DB: 10r2
APEX is installed in the same database as EBS 11i10
1. I have developed a APEX application that is can be launched from EBS as a form function. Also, the APEX will not ask any credential when user launch it from EBS, since user is already authenticated. Also, APEX will also display FND username, responsibility for user who has login - <<This is already implemented>>
2. by Default, APEX will display a page, where user can browser and import a csv file into a predefined custom table <<This is already implemented>>
3. After csv file is imported into cusotm table, user will click "Submit" button to process the data. APEX will submit a concurrent request (eventually, the concurrent program will call Oracle API to process data). A concurrent request is will display on the apex page. << This is WIP and I don't forsee any issue to implement this, since many have done this before>>
4. User will write down the request id from step 3 and go to another apex page. In this page, user will enter request id and click "View Output", which should retrieve the concurrent output for that request id and display the output in a new browser. I don't want user go back to EBS to view the concurrent output. << This is my question for this thread>>
My question for step 4: is there a seeded EBS API (FND_???) that I can call by passing a request id and API should display the concurrent request output in a browser automatically? Assuming, I will use fnd_global.apps_initialize() API in this page to set EBS env properly.
My question may not be a direct APEX question; however, I hope someone can offer some help to me. I have done numerous research on this and still haven't find this API.
Thanks!
Kevin

Hi Kevin,
I am having an issue implementing the Call from an EBS menu entry to the APEX Page.
I created the menu entry as a SSWA Function that use the apex_launch procedure to call the APEX page but when the user clicks on the option menu, the EBS login page appears.
Can you share with me how can I fix this?
Thanks

Apex integration with EBS

After all these settings when I login from EBS I get login page for applications and nothing happens. I don't think it's making any calls to apex_launch procedure.
Anyone if implemented this please guide step by step. Want to know where I am going wrong. Is then any logging to be turned on EBS side to know where the program fails.
Thanks in advance,

Hi Rod,
I am able to redirect the to the apex page. Now the concern is that it is asking for the user name and password. If I type my EBS user name and password it works.
But the main concept is that it should not ask for user name and password. Those values should be passed through cookies. Can you please help me with the same

and your database is running with NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS=CHAR, then you need to change it to NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS = BYTE. The following technique can be used for this change:
1. alter system set nls_length_semantics = BYTE scope = spfile;
2. shutdown the database
3. restart the database
Will be glad if you can help in solving it.

OID Installation Questions pertaining to integration with EBS 11.5.10.2

Our Environment is E-Business Suite 11.5.10.2 and we want to investigate/view OID/SSO in action. Ultimately, we'll attempt to use Microsoft Active Directory as the source (of truth). I had performed OID/SSO integration with EBS about 3 years ago and remember the "overall" scheme, but Oracle's documentation/downloads page has left me thoroughly confused, hence, I am asking those that have been through the process .... THANKS IN ADVANCE
(1) Do I need to install the base AS 10g Infrastructure and Metadata Repository via 10.1.2.0.2 installation or can I go directly to installing OID 10.1.4.0.1 ??
Here is what I believe the steps to be, PLEASE, correct me if I am wrong ...
(1) Install 10.1.2.0.2 Application Server Infrastructure by selecting "Infrastructure and Metadata Repository"
(2) Install 10.1.4.0.1 and select to upgrade an existing 10.1.2.0.2 installation. Once 10.1.4.0.1 has upgraded everything, including the database to 10.1.0.5, I assume that I can simply remove 10.1.2.0.2 through the Oracle Installer. Is this correct ??
(3) Once upgrade to 10.1.4.0.1, I believe that I need to download a Metadata Upgrade Assistant patch, (mrua), and run mrua,sh to upgrade MR to 10.1.4.0.1 which will be apparent by querying app_registry view.
(4) Upgrade 10.1.4.0.1 to 10.1.4.3
The documentation is confusing and hard to find for me. Do these steps seem to accomplish the tasks or am I missing something ??
THANKS IN ADVANCE

I didn't do the install myself but we went straight to installing 10.1.4 Identity Manangement, although I believe that Infrastructure components which underly it are essentially the same as 10.1.2. As far as I know you can't use 10.1.3 because it lacks those infrastucture components.

Need Urgent Help on Meeting Place Integration with CUCM 7.1 and AS5400 PSTN Gateway

Hi,
This is first time I am on this forum.
I have already tried going through a lot of docs on docwiki.cisco.com but couldn't find complete configuration help.
I have to integrate Meeting Place 8.X with an existing CUCM and an E1 gateway (PSTN Gateway) AS5400.
The CUCM is already part of a Telepresence Environment. I need to create a SIP trunk between AS5400 and CUCM 7.1 and then create a Trunk between AS5400 and Cisco Unified MP 8.X and then between CUMP and CUCM.
I need help on AS5400 SIP Configs as well as parameters I need to cover on CUCM (Though I have done some basic dial-peer configs but they haven't been of much help).
Then I also need help on AS5400 SIP configs with CUMP 8.0
Any docs on Integration between CUMP and TP3000 will be of great help too.
Rgds,

Discoverer integration with EBS R12 !!!

Hello Sir,
I need help to install/integrate Discoverer with R12.
Actually, our clients are using Discoverer 4i in current EBS 11.5.10.2 in production. We have just upgraded EBS in TEST environment from 11.5.10.2 to R12.1.3.
I had suggested client that Discoverer 4i is actually de-supported and they need to upgrade Discoverer version to minimum 10.1.2.3 or higher to integrate it with R12.1.3.
Now, client also have requirement for Discoverer to be certified with MS Excel 2010 format. So I have suggested to upgrade Discoverer version to minimum 11.1.1.4.
Latest certified Discoverer version is 11.1.1.7.0 as per note Using Discoverer 11.1.1 with Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 (Doc ID 1074326.1)
1) Can you please provide your opinion and any documentation which I can follow to install/integrate Discoverer with R12 ?
2) Do I need to first install separate 10gAS for installing Discoverer 10.1.2.3 or Fusion middleware home for installing Discoverer 11g ? If yes, where can I find doc for this installation ?
3) Since 10g support has ended July 2013, where can I get media for installing 10gAS ?
4) Is there any additional licences required for using either Discoverer 10g or Discoverer 11g ?

1) Can you please provide your opinion and any documentation which I can follow to install/integrate Discoverer with R12 ?
In addition to the doc you have, please see:

User authentication when OBIEE is integrated with EBS

Hello guys
I have a conceptual question about how OBIEE authentication is performed in an integrated environment with EBS? If the goal is to have users access to OBIEE based on their roles given in EBS, what kind of authentication is it needed for such implementation?
Do I import users and group from EBS database or LDAP server (if its available)? what kind of session variable and ini block is created if I want to do data level secuirty based on user groups?
Please give some basic idea and guidelines on topic
Thank you very much

APEX Integration with EBusiness 12.1.3

I am trying to connect to an APEX app thru EBS and skip the logon page. I have followed Rod West's document http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/apex-ebs-wp-cabot-consulting-169064.pdf ] ). I've also been searching thru postings reading any info provided by others who have had trouble getting this working but have not seen the error I'm getting.
FYI - using Apex 3.2 (I know it's old!) EBS R12 12.1.3; APEX is on another domain and in another schema.
I am getting very close because if I hardcode the username in the Onload process, it works great - creates new password, skips 2nd logon page, etc. Where I'm having the problem is with wfa_sec.getsession. I've tried wrapping it in another package and anything else I can think of and always get the error below:
ORA-20002: 3403: Internal: error while getting session information. -6502: ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small ORA-06512: at "SYS.HTP", line 1515 ORA-06512: at "SYS.HTP", line 1735 ORA-06512: at "APPS.ORACLEAPPS", line 1111 ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error ORA-06512: at "APPS.ICX_SEC", line 2387 ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error ORA-06512: at "SYS.OWA_UTIL", line 356 ORA-06512: at "SYS.HTP", line 1368 ORA-06512: at "SYS.HTP", line 1443 ORA-06512
So then I created a simple procedure to run thru EBS as a concurrent program to just call the same package
create or replace package sko_session_pkg as
procedure getsession
(errbuf out varchar2, retcode out varchar2);
end sko_session_pkg;
create or replace package body sko_session_pkg AS
PROCEDURE getsession (errbuf out varchar2, retcode out varchar2) IS
p_user varchar2(320) := NULL;
begin
wfa_sec.getsession(p_user);
end getsession;
end sko_session_pkg;
When I run this procedure I get the same error:
**Starts**12-JUL-2012 19:10:22
ORACLE error 20002 in FDPSTP
Cause: FDPSTP failed due to ORA-20002: 3403: Internal: error while getting session information. -6502: ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
ORA-06512: at "SYS.HTP", line 1515
ORA-06512
Output file size:
0
Has anyone encountered this error when accessing wfa_sec.getsession?
Any help would be greatly appreciated and thanks in advance!

Rod,
I thought I should attempt to get your LaunchApex.jsp provided in Figure 9 from your document working before I added additional code to call the get_apex_url.
LaunchApex.jsp compiled successfully and the apps server was bounced but getting Page Not Found error. Without the get_apex_url code in LaunchApex.jsp, I was expecting it to just bring up the APEX login screen (like the GWY.jsp does). FYI - I'm calling this from EBS responsibility/menu pointing to Function 'APEX_LOGIN'; type=SSWA jsp function; HTML Call=LaunchApex.jsp?&application=614&page=3140
The url that shows when I get the page not found is
http://....../OA_HTML/RF.jsp?function_id=51525&resp_id=64694&resp_appl_id=0&security_group_id=0&lang_code=US&params=JGFTjw4wmhX6TenmVQJ4IGGtVKZXnnU1EV.XsJrX5us&oas=xn4Xk7Bp9SgoTpjrieP_Zw..
Where is the RF.jsp coming from???? There's a call in the jsp to validate the session so thought maybe it wasn't able to do that and is just returning.
If I type url
http://..../OA_HTML/LaunchApex.jsp? I get same 'Page Not Found'.
Thx for all of your help!

OBIA 7.9.6.3 security integration with EBS R12.1.2

Hi Experts,
We are implementing OBI Apps 7.9.6.3 with EBS R12.1.2 as source.We need to integrate Active Directory with OBIEE and implement security of BI Apps with EBS R12.1.2. Need help on this.
How to map EBS Responsibilities into Application Role and Groups? Whether we need to create one Application Role and Group for each responsibility ? Then provide permissions in rpd for each of them? The user should have similar permission in BI as they have in EBS - like people can see only US Finance data in EBS should see only US Finance data in BI also.
Regards,
mvsst

You can go through obia security guide which explains step by step procedure with screenshot on how to implement ebs authentication and role based access.

Documents Needed for cFolder integration with SRM50

Hello SRM Experts,
I am in need of some info about the cFolder integration with the SRM system. Can anybody help me by sending some documents regarding the same. my email id is [email protected]
Our system is SRM50 SP11.
Thanks & Best Regards
Raj

Hi,
Do you have cFolders on the same server as SRM ?
Foll are the settings reqd:
--.define a LS for cFolders( you have to duplicate SRM LS if it is on the same server)
-->define an RFC destination for this system (even if same as SRM)
-->define a backend system of type cFolders in SRM SPRO
-->activate SICF cFolders service (with external alias)
Normally the collaboration area should be displayed in document tab.
